Lion and a Campus

Well Apple is all in the news now, with their big WWDC announcements for OSX Lion, IOS5 and the new iCloud. Plus we can see their plans for the new Cupertino 'campus' which features a huge ring building for 12,000 employees.

Watch the full keynote from WWDC to see Steve and his gang introduce the features of these new software releases. Apple is pretty painful to watch in general (all the self praise and cheering), but there is some nice stuff and certainly lots of common ground with Win8.

I find it interesting the fixation with both OSes with full -screen apps now - we could already maximise apps that allowed for it - we watch video this wall all the time. Plus most of the time I like my apps in windows so I can use my screen for lotsa different things at the same time - maybe it is just me...

Anyhow, here is the vid of Steve Jobs presenting to the Cupertino Council his plans for the Apple Campus - some visualisation images in here, but nothing that flash...

Who is this Oinkfrog person?

AKA Graham Hannah (Sydney Australia), yes just a guy who is diving into all the related realms of Digital Creativity and documenting it here.
I am currently the IT Manager for both Built Environment and Law at UNSW - supporting a design-centric set of IT services and infrastructure. I have completed my Masters of Digital Media and the future should see even more creative output from me...
